History Channel coming from the left with facts. But if you really want to know the trouble we’re in, read a few comments from their thread. Low info delusional right wingers who believe all these new billionaires earned their money. Lots of folks becoming vacuums for surplus labor.

The Christian Left
It seems pretty clear that Trump is going to turn America back into the Bush era shithole we just escaped while everyone sits back and says, “Well, Americans knew who Donald Trump was before the election, and they elected him anyway.”
So beyond nauseated by that excuse. For one thing, he lost the popular vote by a greater margin than any US President in history. He’ll never be able to escape that fact. His ‘victory’ was a weird, sad fluke.
People might as well start preparing for the entire country to look like Kansas under Sam Brownback. The policies he put in place exemplify the GOP playbook to the letter. They have their boilerplate and they intend to impose it on the entire nation.

And they will further realize that “suburban white-collar workers, themselves desperately afraid of being downsized, are not going to let themselves be taxed to provide social benefits for anyone else.” At that point, “something will crack,” he warned. “The nonsuburban electorate will decide that the system has failed and start looking for a strongman to vote for—someone willing to assure them that, once he is elected, the smug bureaucrats, tricky lawyers, overpaid bond salesmen, and postmodernist professors will no longer be calling the shots.”

Twenty years ago, Richard Rorty warned that “a spectatorial, disgusted, mocking Left” would give rise to a populist demagogue. Is it ready now to take his advice?
